Congratulations for your video, very enlightening and interesting for the patients and families. Keep going!
As you stated, not all patients respond favorably to lithium. The valproate made me dizzy and I fell down frequently. I take carbamazepine. If you have bipolar disorder, you and your psychiatrist will need to work as a team to find the correct effective mix.
I assumed my wife was cheating and poisoning me, or would prefer if I wasn’t around
You screwed saying at the end: I hope you enjoyed this video, its tuff and sad and painful no reason to enjoy the content of it, instead: I hope you got the partial message of a truly misunderstood medical diagnosis
I would recomend a book called "BUDDHIST PSYCHOTHERAPY" by Dr. H. S. S. Nissanka
. There are many curable case, including Manic-depressive psychosis.
i guess I'm bipolar fuck what I always felt normal until I got hit by a car I got a injury guess it made me bipolar 😖😭💔 happy thanks giving also I searched up one of my meds I got prescribed are for manic depression
Lamictal (lamotrigine) works well for many people with bipolar disorder, including myself.
Doctor I have just one question, is passable with by polar also have short memory problems, and sleep problems, I will be very thankful if you answer my question ty very much for your time..
I simply need a few million dollars and I'll be fine! Lol
The link to the depression video works but says the video is private. That’s really what I’m here to learn about. Can you help?
I knew a guy with this… well he told me he was bipolar. We were only fwb for 4 months before I just couldnt take it anymore. He held it together for the most part aside from the constant dumping if his issues on me… then hed start losing it if I didnt answer a text fast enough. I told him if i saw it again id be gone. Then one day he sees I am at my ex's place… 20 years ago my ex who is basically a friend now and he went completely nuts. The texts were paragraphs long and completely insane, vicious and unhinged. It literally scared me they were so crazy and I called the police for advice because I worried this guy would try to cause me trouble.. with work, or family.. or show up at my place even though we lived 4 hours apart. I feel so bad for people with this but if Im being honest anyone who thinks they can be in a relationship with someone like this is lying to themselves and one day your mental health is going to be destroyed. I cant even imagine how much more quickly he would have worn me down if we actually lived in the same city and saw each other regularly. I also noticed there was no reasoning with him.. about anything even when he was in a seemingly normal state. Id try to explain to him why something he did or said was wrong or crazy and hed just make excuse after excuse completely unable to grasp what he was doing was wrong. Is that normal in BPD? Inability to reason properly and not know the difference between wrong and right when it comes to how you deal and treat people? The expression "banging my head against a brickwall" made all the sense in the world to me after dealing with this guy. Only took him 4 months to completely exhaust me.
Bipolar disorder is nothing but unable to read and accepting realities of life. Developing strong personality is key.
Lots of cannabis and having large big breast wife with booty helps. But it's only a start.
"20% "Successfully" commit suicide"? Not my idea of "success"!
Thank you
Thank you for the information. It can be so confusing trying to be there for someone experiencing this illness but being knowledgeable about it can help us to understand and show care for those we care about
